Storage policy change for VMs

Hello,

I wonder if it's possibile to track the process when I modify storage policy for one or more VMs.
For instance changing the raid protection from erasure coding to mirroring.

Do can I expect increased CPU usage on hosts in this kind of operation?

Kind regards

Lorenzo

Hi,

Yes, you can track this process on the "Resyncing Components" view.

The resync uses CPU cycles, so you can expect an increase during this operation, but you can throttle this traffic in order to minimize the impact on the production workloads.

This is an area that was greatly improved on the latest vSAN versions.

Thanks,
